This year is a leap year, so  we have an extra day this week! I hope you have a beautiful day on the 29th! Each day is special! There is always something each day that happens or we see or we hear that makes us feel thankful and blessed! Just like a physical heartbeat our spirit gives a little “leap” of thankful joy! 

   

We have had a problem with the taps in our kitchen. The water isn’t leaking, but it is just a bit hard to completely turn them off! They want to keep dripping!  Eventually Dad called the  “ Service Today” company that does plumbing as well as other work and a plumber came and fixed the washers on our taps! He said the taps were old though and that he would “ do what he could” and hoped that it would fix it!

   Our lives may sometimes feel like those taps. We may have many outward or inward tears as we endure through pain, tiredness  or are missing loved ones who have gone ahead to our heavenly home. Our loving Lord tenderly watches over us, wraps a gentle invisible arm around us and quietly whispers: “ I care ...I understand” ❤️

 Valentines Day is this week! It is a special day to say : “ I LOVE YOU” to someone that is special to you. We can though say it every day!  But it is also very nice to have a special day to say an extra I Love you! ❤️💖❤️💕❤️💖 

The Day that our loving Lord died for us was an extra special day where He showed His love! His arms were wide open on the cross, saying that He loves us this much! 

When we had the stormy weather the other day, there was a big lightning strike, and we lost our  electricity! It was off for quite a few hours! It was a bit odd but the next day, Dad went to get some ice cream from a tub that is in the freezer part of our fridge ... but there was no ice cream in the tub! It had melted and “ escaped” through a crack in the tub and had leaked all over the freezer shelf! It was a mess! 

       May we also have hearts that have been “ melted” and give out love ❤️Loving words, Loving actions, Loving care in a million ways is the main part of living! May we do these  under the shelter of the  beautiful wings of love of our loving Lord ❤️
